My Spirit Companion Is Just a Cover: He’s Been Wanting to Keep Me Close All Along!

[Sweet Historical Romance] [A heroine skilled in both medicine and poison × a powerful prince] [Fated across two lifetimes, bound by a spirit companion]

Her soul returns after a car accident.

The heroine is a disfigured, good-for-nothing daughter of a marquis, poisoned and scarred. Skilled in both medicine and poison, she heals her scars and takes revenge on scoundrels. After losing her memories along with her spirit companion, she becomes timid whenever she sees him, and accidentally discovers his secret.

From then on, their paths are intertwined.

He is a powerful prince feared by the emperor, who commands a vast army while keeping his strength concealed. Across the whole world, he is the only one who can see her spirit companion.

“He's the only one who can see my spirit companion. Does that mean he has a crush on me?”

“He keeps focusing on my spirit companion. Is he flirting with me?”

From then on, he sticks close to her every day, never leaving her side.

Their spirit companion's instincts bring them together, and they grow closer and closer. In a secret realm, the deep love they shared in two lifetimes suddenly comes rushing back.

He traps her beside the bed, kisses the corner of her trembling eye to calm her panic, and presses his burning breath against her lips.

First, he murmurs hoarsely,

“The spirit companion was always just an excuse.”

Then, holding her tightly by the waist, he kisses her tenderly and continues, his words wrapped in scorching breath:

“I've waited through two lifetimes. All I want is to hold you close and never let you go again.”

So the reason he kept focusing on my spirit companion was that he wanted to make me his.
